I request gcc to have the feature of incremental compiling:

Gcc should have an option to compile source by reading line-for-line
rather than buffering the whole file.

This would allow you to essentially cat | gcc - and watch
errors/warnings come up as you type in code.

The advantage of this feature would be amazing for IDE's, they could
offer realtime hilighting of error/warning lines in code.

Hi Full Decent,

Eclipse 3.0 IDE with CDT 2.0 offers nearly real-time highlighting of
error/warning lines in C/C++ code.

CDT stands for "C/C++ Development Tools", a plug-in for the Eclipse IDE
platform.

Eclipse is the best IDE I've used.  And usually, I eschew IDE's in favor of
Vim.  (Now only if the Vim editor was a free-and-well-integrated plug-in for
Eclipse.  But alas.)

Sincerely,
--Eljay
